"I played chess and table tennis for some time as it helped me relieve myself of the stress due to boards," Remani told the Free Press Journal. Remani credited his teachers and his parents for his success, saying, "I feel elated and wish to thank my parents and teachers who supported me throughout the year. I plan on pursuing engineering and I'm preparing for the JEE entrance exam".
